In the previous lesson, the students worked in groups to create a script for their own versions of Tarzan which they will perform for the class today. The groups all needed more time to finish up. I promised them more time at the beginning of this lesson to finish writing their scripts and practice. I have alotted thirty minutes for the students to use to be ready for their performances. I will help any group that needs help during that time and try to keep the groups on task and focused.

Big Idea:
In this lesson, students work independently to solve problems involving conversions and then present their strategy to their learning partner. The learning partner will then present the partner's strategy to the class.
